SPRING  AND  SUMMER,  1908 


Our  Remarkable  Growth 

CJ  Nineteen  years  ago  we  received  our  first  mail  order— and  we  made  to  order  our 
first  garment  for  our  first  customer. 

q  To-day  over  500,000  American  Ladies  are  our  mail  order  customers. 
CJ  Our  paid-in  capital  is  One  Million  Dollars. 

C[  We  own  and  occupy  exclusively  an  eleven-story  building.  Our  employees  num- 
ber fifteen  hundred. 

€J  Remarkable  growth— certainly.  But  just  why  have  the  American  Ladies  so  liber- 
ally given  us  their  patronage  ? 

€J  We  give  you  here  five  principal  reasons.  Five  reasons  why  you,  from  your  stand- 
point, and  for  your  own  personal  pleasure  and  profit,  should  send  us  your  order. 


And  Here  Are  the  Reasons 

<I  We  give  you  New  York  Styles  as  worn  by  New  York  women.  Our  garments  are 
carefully  and  expertly  selected  as  being  the  newest  and  most  desirable  to  be  had  in 
the  acknowledged  style  center— New  York. 

^  We  buy  and  sell  at  lowest  prices.  Quality  considered  we  sell  our  garments  at 
the  lowest  prices  quoted  in  the  United  States. 

^  We  pay  all  postage  and  express  charges.  No  matter  in  what  part  of  the  United 
States  you  live,  and  no  matter  how  large  or  small  your  order,  all  postage  or  express 
charges  will  be  paid  by  us,  provided  the  full  catalogue  price  is  sent  with  your  order. 

C[  We  do  a  mail  order  business  exclusively.  Our  time — all  of  our  time,  is  spent  in 
studying  how  to  please  our  mail  order  customers — in  learning  how  to  please  you.

Instructions  for  Ordering  the  Made-to-Measure  Garments 

Illustrated  on  Pages  9  to  29. 


1.  How  to  Order  a  Made-to-Measure  Garment. 

First:  Make  your  selection  from  the  styles  shown  on  pages  t" 
29  of  this  Catalogue.  Second:  Choose  a  material  from  any  <>t 
our  samples  labelled  Quality  A,  B,  C,  D,  K,  P  ami  G.  Third: 
Have  your  measurements  taken  at  home  according  to  our  simple 
instructions  on  the  Order  Blanks  in  front  of  this  Catalogue. 
Fourth:  Carefully  fill  out  the  Order  Blank,  enclose  your  remit 
tance  and  mail  to  us.  As  we  conduct  a  mail-order  business, 
we  receive  orders  by  mail  only. 

2.  HOW  tO  Select  a  Style.  Select  from  pages  9  to  29 
the  style  of  garment  you  prefer.  In  ordering  a  suit,  you  have  the 
privilege  of  selecting  the  jacket  of  one  style  and  the  skirt  of 
another,  but  only  those  shown  on  pages  9  to  29.  To  learn  the 
price  of  a  suit  consisting  of  two  made-to-measure  styles,  read  the 
instructions  given  in  paragraph  5  on  this  page. 

3.  How  to  Select  a  Material  for  a  Made-to- 
Measure  Garment.  Choose  from  our  samples  labelled  Qual- 
ity A,  B,  C,  D,  E,  F  and  G,  the  material  you  like  best  and  note  the 
quality  printed  on  the  pin-ticket  attached.  You  can  ascertain  the 
price  of  your  garment  when  made  in  that  quality  by  referring  to 
the  figures  under  its  description  in  this  Catalogue.  If  you  do  not 
find  just  what  you  desire  among  the  samples  sent,  we  will  be  glad 
to  mail  you  an  additional  assortment  on  receipt  of  your  request. 

4.  How  to  Take  Your  Measurements  for  a  Made- 

to-Order  Garment.  Turn  to  the  Order  Blank  in  the  front  of 
this  Catalogue.  The  instructions  printed  thereon  tell  you  exactly 
how  your  measurements  can  be  taken  by  any  one  at  your  own 
home.  It  is  not  necessary  to  go  to  a  dressmaker  for  this  purpose. 
These  instructions  should  be  carefully  read  by  you,  as  well  as  by 
the  person  who  is  to  take  your  measurements.  Remember,  the 
measurements  should  be  taken  from  your  figure  and  not  from  an 
old  garment.  Use  an  accurate  tape  measure  and  do  not  make  any 
allowance  for  seams.  If  you  have  any  special  instructions  to  give 
us  as  to  how  you  wish  your  garment  made  or  trimmed,  or  if  there 
is  any  peculiarity  about  your  figure,  write  us  fully  on  a  separate 
sheet  and  enclose  it  with  the  order.  Do  not  fail  to  securely  pin  or 
sew  samples  of  the  materials  you  select  in  the  spaces  provided 
on  our  Order  Blank. 


5.  How  to  Learn  the  Cost  of  a  Made-to-Measure 
Suit  Consisting  of  the  Jacket  and  Skirt  of  Different 
Styles  Shown  on  Pages  9  to  29.   In  ordering  a  suit  to  be 

made  to  your  measure,  you  may  combine  the  features  of  any  of 
the  styles  shown  on  pages  9  to  29  of  this  Catalogue.  That  is,  if  you 
are  pleased  with  the  jacket  of  one  style,  but  prefer  the  skirt  of 
another,  we  will  make  the  suit  exactly  as  you  wish,  combining 
the  styles  selected.  Please  remember,  however,  that  we  will  not 
make  a  suit  combining  one  of  our  ready-made  styles  with  one  of 
our  made-to-measure  garments. 

The  price  of  each  jacket  and  skirt  illustrated  on  pages  9  to  29 
of  this  Catalogue  is  given  separately  under  its  description,  and 
you  can  easily  ascertain  the  cost  of  a  suit  consisting  of  the  jacket 
of  one  style,  and  the  skirt  of  another,  by  adding  the  price  of  the 
jacket  desired  to  that  of  the  skirt  you  wish,  in  the  same  quality 
of  material. 

For  example,  if  you  wish  a  suit  of  Quality  A  material,  to  con- 
sist of  a  jacket  like  style  No.  2014  with  a  skirt  like  style  No.  2018, 
you  can  ascertain  the  price  of  the  suit  by  adding  the'  cost  of  the 
jacket  and  skirt  as  follows  : 

Jacket  Style  No.  2014,  Quality  A,  $8.00 
Skirt    Style  No.  2018,  Quality  A,  4.50 
Price  of  suit  complete,  $12.50 

Should  you  wish  a  suit  in  Quality  B  material,  with  a  jacket
